Norton antivirus will cause windows messenger to start and log you on automatically and never display an icon on the taskbar i figured this out awhile back when my sisters were having the problem... open norton antivirus go to options click on instant messaging and at the bottom there should be an option checked to scan incomming messages and files on windows messenger 4.7 or 5.0 uncheck the option and windows messenger shouldnt start up or log you on.
absolutely correct.... I never mentioned this in the list and forgot all about this... thanks for the reminder
